Breaking away from conventional robots that perform only predefined functions once fabricated, researchers have developed a next-generation artificial muscle that can change its shape in real time, recover from damage,

US robotics startup Kinsi Robotics released a new video last week showcasing its KR-1 robot folding a towel while explaining and demonstrating how it was trained to perform the task autonomously. The task involved picking up a towel from random positions ...

Researchers at the MIT Media Lab and Italy’s Politecnico di Bari have developed artificial muscle fibers that aim to match the strength, speed, and control of natural muscles without relying on bulky motors or external pumps.

Silent Artificial Muscles: A team of researchers has developed artificial muscles that function just like human muscles. These could completely revolutionize both the design of robots and the way they operate.

It's not clear that anyone was asking for a company to build a muscular, sinewy robot or to see a video of it dangling, helpless from a hook, but life is full of surprises and this YouTube video of Clone Robotics' "Protoclone" is here all the same.

Researchers at Seoul National University have developed an artificial muscle that can change shape

Because the pumps and actuators are manufactured in a fiber-like geometry, they can be arranged in various configurations depending on the specific robotic task. For applications requiring high-speed responses,
